Abstract

A 120 GHz, 1MW, TE_15,2,1 whispering gallery mode gyrotron was designed and constructed. As this tube is a demountable type, it is possible to change the important parts of the gyrotron such as a magnetron injection gun, a cavity and a window. In the first experiment, an output power of 610 kW was obtained at 120 GHz with an efficiency of 30.6 %. The maximum efficiency of 32.2 % was achieved at an output power of 506 kW.
